Name:
NhaR
Description:
Molecular biology levelDetailed: In the presence of sodium, NhaR positively regulates the expression of genes required for sodium transport, cell adhesión, biofilm formation and response to oxidative and osmotic stresses. Under these conditions, NhaR is modified to NhaR-sodium, binds its target sites enabling its own expression and the expression of its regulated genes. In the absence of sodium, NhaR unbinds its target sites, preventing the expression of its regulated genes.Less detailed: In the presence of sodium, NhaR positively regulates the expression of genes needed for sodium transport, cell adhesión, biofilm formation and response to oxidative and osmotic stresses.Physiology levelDetailed: The presence of sodium induces the expression of genes involved with sodium transport, cell adhesión, biofilm formation and response to oxidative and osmotic stresses. Under these conditions, the genes necessary for transport of sodium into cell, PGA transport, polimerization and deacetylation are expresed.Less detailed: The presence of sodium induces the expression of genes needful for transport of sodium into cell, PGA transport, polimerization and deacetylation.
